" Trainees as well as officials at American University continued to react this week to a racially charged event on the university's university where bananas were discovered hanging from strings "in the form of nooses," inning accordance with the school.

" I regret this taken place, ask forgiveness to everyone upset, and state absolutely that this incident does not mirror just what American University absolutely is," AU Head of state Neil Kerwin stated in a memo sent out Monday evening.

Kerwin called the occurrence a "cowardly, despicable act."

" Know that American University continues to be fully commited to principles of variety, inclusion, act of courtesy, and also human dignity, as well as acts of bigotry only reinforce our willpower," the memo mentioned. "Anyone that does not really feel in a similar way does not belong below."

Listenbuddy1 I got the newest product of snake oil with a secret ingredient, just for talents like you! Don’t believe the fake media and the fake TYT, this snake oil is fantastic for your health especially your mental health!

False equivalency, the left’s favorite fallacy. Terrorism isn’t being made worse by dint of talking about it. Quite the opposite. The complete shutdown of a sane conversation about terrorism is precisely why it’s getting worse. The obsession over race on the other hand is simply furthering the divide in an already divided time. Western nations are the least racist nations in the history of humanity. White-majority nations are undeniably the most tolerant towards their minorities than any other nation. This isn’t something to be obsessed about anymore.

There was a video on YouTube (now on LiveLeak) of black people burning a witch but they don’t even do it right. They beat the woman with sticks and throw her into a small fire but they don’t tie her up and the fire is small and her body is smothering it and puttting it out. The lady keeps crawling back out and they have to beat her with sticks some more and kick her back into the fire.

Why do people love to call organizations created for black people racist as if we were never denied the access to the white ones thus being the reason we had to create our own. Anyone can join these organizations, they were just created by people of color. People always say: “Well if it was on the other foot”
It has been on the other foot for history. People sound so ignorant complaining about Historically black colleges, sororities and fraternities. In the past we were clearly told that we couldn’t be apart of those things. Don’t act like it never happened. That is the point I’m making so don’t be fallacious and argue against something I didn’t say.

Alasdair Macghillebhain I was never denied access obviously. What does that have to do with the organozations? They already exist. Those were the reasons why they were created, because of the lack of access.

+MOSS88 I understand your point on a pernicious level, but in reality we’ve passed the point or the true ability to live amongst our own race/ethnicity. Even if whites are the majority, because i hate to break your internalized perspective, but if racism was erraticated, then class racism would take over where racism left off! Class racism already exists, but not nearly on the level of ethnicity based racism.

+MOSS88 how can cenk incite or elevate hateful acts? Cenk is only bringing to light that which most white Americans want to sweep under the rug? Racism is still very real and we need people in the spotlight to raise awareness about racism in America.

>>>Kevin Baker my group? ?? who the f**k is my group? In my place of work I am the only white guy there and most of my friends are not even white. Im getting sick and tired of libtards lumping all white people together. Its not my fault racist idiot white southerns enslaved black people hundreds of years ago. my family came to the United States in the early 1900’s. Enough of this buII$hit. I wasn’t even going to vote for Trump until people started pointing and screaming racist. Then to spite you I voted for him. I am pleased to see how angry you all are. Im thrilled, sorry to do it to you but you asked for it. Hopefully we get him two terms.<<<
Probably the dumbest youtube comment I've seen all week, that's saying a lot.
So you voted for Trump to SPITE someone else? That is the pinnacle of being a dumbass voter.
Not only that, that is the pinnacle of being an emotional wreck. You couldn't' take what someone said about you, or they said something that offended you, so you voted for Trump...just to spite them.
People call liberals snowflakes, that was a snowflake vote. "Muh feelings! I'mma vote for Trump now, you hurt muh fee fees!"

Roose Bolton I said it many times, I warned all of TYT SJWs that you were becoming a nuance. especially all of your annoying violent riots. Pushing down reporters and beating up random white people for no reason. I have plenty of reasons, would you like a list? Oh by the way, TYT is named after a radical government that committed the Armenian genocide genocide. You and all of TYT are wrong. there is no more discussion. You get called garbage because you are garbage. No more of your BuII $hit, we are done with your SJW double standard, crying racist when you don’t get your way pathetic existence. No more, we are going to continue to vote for specific people you dislike. We will no longer tolerate being forced to feel ashamed of white people that had nothing to do with us. especially since one percent of the southern population owned slaves. inconsistent reporting from jr high level “journalist” scumbags on TYT. No more. Im fine with Trump being the president. “He won’t be president!” “Yes he will.” Oh and look at that, I was right, yet again. The American people are done with you freaks. Garbage disposal network TYT.

>>>Roose Bolton — yes taking news from tv and reporting on it is lying now lol<<<
He lied about the knockout game. As for taking news and reporting it, so what? You can cherry pick stories and create your own narrative easily enough. There are sites that do this with white racist crime as well.
The stats are pretty clear, if you are white you are far more likely to be killed by another white person. Do you agree with that or not?

Roose Bolton – cherry picking stories and making your own narrative is tyt in a nutshell champ….they report on banana nooses and not tyt fans who go on racist killing sprees…oh no doubt you are more likely to get killed by your own race but the black on white murders is a lot higher than white on black, same as rape….do you agree with this or not? if so therefore this narrative of such a racist society in 2017 does not really hold true

I feel like the only reason some people deny things like a recent black kid being shot by another police is because they want to live in this fictional world where racism is dead. Pretend like the Civil Rights Movement wasn't even a century ago, or pretend that certain other statistics don't hold true. For instance, how likely you are to get a job with a black sounding name than a white one.

There is a long list of statistics and studies. You can deny them all you want,

All many of you are doing is deflecting, defending ANY racism that goes against black people as if they are not a minority but then going on about ANY racism that goes against white people. Because white people have a long history of being discriminated against, right?

TYT is a network, they can report on anything they like. I tell you what, no right-leaning media is going to report on this story.

The difference is about 7%, a difference, granted. A huge difference? No. The fact still remains, if you are white you are much more likely to get killed by a white person. So tell me this, why doesn’t Colin write about that? Why don’t conservative websites focus on THAT?

They sell you fear of the other, fear of black people, and you buy it right up just so you can say “Well, Racism is dead!” and feel better about yourself at night.

+KermitTheFrog I still don’t understand, how did white people gain the ability to take black people as their slaves? All people are the same, how could they think Africans were inferior? What does any of this have to do with monkeys?! I am so confused!

Mixing with Neanderthals allwed white people to jump ahead millions of years of evolution. The Neanderthals had traits that had evolved over millions of years of living in Europe and surviving multiple ice ages. The ones that were benificial quickly spread throughout the white and asian population as those with traits bettter suited for life in the African jungle died off.

tyt is just race baiting at this stage. they wont cover issues overseas because they do American news the they wint cover fresno shooting because only 3 people died and they wont cover muslim doctor and nurse being arrested for chopping of young girls clitoris in Michigan BUT they will cover relatively minor racist acts where no one was hurt in order to push their narrative

PKNHET well coming from a time where bananas are familiarize with monkeys. lol. this world is driving off race from the media to where you work your 9 to 5.. Is this a prank or a racial stir up, idk. but why the noose? we all know the history that has.

The 1964 Civil Rights Act makes it illegal to discriminate on the basis of race. Especially if they are receiving Federal funding, which most do. In fact Title IX discourages discrimination base on gender. Specifically in sororities and fraternities. So me as a white male would be eligible for membership in this particular sorority as long as a met the requirements. This is not a matter of your belief. It is a matter of federal law.

asrafoo How long has it been since blacks weren’t allowed to mix in sororities and churches, etc? Why still have these segregated institutions? I mean fine, keep them if you want. Just don’t get why you have to perpetuate these institutions that only keep that segregated spirit from worse time alive… just so you can keep reminding yourself and others about it and make it part of your identity, being different?

the black president of her country faced this for 8 years straight but somehow Hannah missed it. 100 years ago a black man invented the adjustable wrench and it has been called a monkey wrench ever since. you would think in 100 years they would come up with something new, but they just display their limitations whenever they can apparently.

ting280 In 2015 it was circulated on social media via viral picture-sharing that African-American boxer Jack Johnson invented and patented the wrench and the term “monkey” was applied to it as a derogatory name for black people.[11] In fact, Johnson did receive a patent for a wrench, but this was only improvements on an existing wrench, which was not related to the monkey wrench, which had been so-named almost a century prior. He patented his improvements on April 18, 1922, as US Patent 1,413,121.

The World English Dictionary gives a nautical definition for monkey, as a modifier “denoting a small light structure or piece of equipment contrived to suit an immediate purpose: a monkey foresail ; a monkey bridge.”

+Mel You are, how come every time someone is being mistreated for their skin color you and other’s come on these video and thumbs it down and make nasty racist remarks or you deny that racism exist. If your conscience wasn’t so guilty you wouldn’t even make the comment that you stated in the first place, because TYT, never stated the race of people who might committed this horrible act.
